Easy Peasy Homemade Pizza Dough

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 40 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 1 hour hr

Ingredients
  

  • 350 g plain flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 25 g butter I have used liquid and solid and both work brilliantly
  • 1 1/2 tbsp oil
  • sachet dried yeast powder
  • 200 ml luke warm water
  • Optional: Sprinkles of chilli flakes for spicy dough 1-2 tsp mixed herbs for herby dough

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven onto 180C
  • Weigh out flour, salt and sugar into a large bowl.
  • Mix in the butter.
  • Add the yeast and the oil and mix together.
  • Add the luke warm water and mix until a dough.
  • Knead for approx 5 minutes or put in a food mixer with a dough hook for around 2-3 minutes.
  • Cut into 4 dough balls. Cover your hands with oil and cover the balls.
  • Leave in the fridge for 20 minutes +.
  • After chilling, roll out one ball thinly on a floured surface and put on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. - I like mine really thin so it goes a long way.
  • I'm a cheat so I used ready made pizza topping and grated cheese and let the girls decide which toppings. I'm favouring spicy cheese with ham and chopped mushrooms at the moment.
  • Cook for 18 minutes (maybe less if you like your dough really thin).
  • Sprinkle with pepper and enjoy!

Notes

Great to get the kids cooking. Amazingly all 3 of mine devour these whereas we have always previously struggled with pizzas.
